Su Ming wanted to kill Dao Yuan, his five Dao Slaves, and all the guards Dao Yuan had summoned later on. He wanted to kill all of them. Even if it was just an illusion, he still longed to do it. He wanted to return to the past, even if it was just an illusion!
Bang!
A loud bang rang in Su Ming's heart. He felt as if his body was about to be torn apart. An intense pain spread through his entire body, causing Su Ming to feel extreme pain, something he had not experienced for a long time.
'That's not right. I've already lost all sense of pain … 'The intense pain caused Su Ming's heart to tremble, and he opened his eyes at that instant.
But he could not open them!
As the pain in his body gradually disappeared, Su Ming did not know where he was. He could not open his eyes, and it was as if his body no longer belonged to him. He could not control it.
'Just what is going on? I … Which period of time am I in? ' Su Ming sensed the intense pain in his body swiftly disappearing. After a moment, when the pain disappeared, he tried to open his eyes again, but he still could not do so. It was as if he had lost the strength to do so.
He could sense that his cultivation base was still around. In fact, his divine sense was still around, but it could not leave his body. It was as if it was confined within him, and it was difficult for it to spread out.
But this was not the main point. The main point was that once the pain disappeared, Su Ming felt warmth. This was not the warmth of his body, but his mind and soul. This warmth was unfamiliar to him, but there was a hint of sadness within that unfamiliarity.
In fact, he did not even know why he was sad, but this sadness made him feel as if he was about to cry. It made his heart ache in extreme pain, and he was at a loss.
'Why do I feel warmth..? This warmth makes me feel close to it, as if I'm being protected. I feel … that this is something I cannot lack in my life, something I have to protect with my life … Where am I..?
'Why do I feel unfamiliar? Which period of time is this in my memories?
'Why … am I sad? I feel like I want to cry? Why am I so sad, as if I've lost the most important person in my life? '
As time passed by, Su Ming gradually calmed down in the midst of this warmth and unfamiliarity as well as sadness. He immersed himself in this warmth and simply allowed time to pass by. One day, in silence, he gradually found a feeling that there was something off about his body.
In the past, it wouldn't take long for his cultivation base to circulate through his entire body. In fact, it would only take an instant. But now … the speed at which his cultivation base was circulating through his body had reached an unbelievable level. In the past, he could only circulate one cycle of cultivation base in an instant. But now … he could circulate more than ten cycles!
This speed stunned him, and at the same time, hundreds of thoughts flashed through his mind.
"My cultivation base hasn't increased. Apart from my fleshly body, I'm still in the Earth Cultivation Realm. In that case, it's not because of my cultivation base, but … because of my body!"
"Zhou Kang once said that the world of the stone tablet was created from a person's memory. In other words, in my memory, there was a period of time when the circulation of my body's cultivation base could reach such a level.
'Just which period of time was it..? It can't be before or after I became the God of Berserkers. I remember that my body was just an illusion at that time, and I couldn't reach this speed.
There's only one possibility. This is my … true body! " Su Ming's heart trembled. The results of his analysis caused the circulation of his cultivation base to become even faster.
"True body, darkness. Could it be … that it's the time when I couldn't see daylight, when I was surrounded by a layer of cold air, and only Fei Er's voice accompanied me?
"That should be it. My true body was sealed by someone in the land of Immortals during that period of time, and I became an object for them to absorb. But why would I feel warmth, unfamiliarity, and sadness..?" Su Ming could not open his eyes. He could not see his surroundings, and he was uncertain about this guess.
"I chose the Eye of the Five Illusory Echelons for the trial to obtain Divine Essence. Right now, I can't open my eyes. Does that mean that the success of this trial … depends on whether I can open my eyes or not?!" Su Ming was no longer the ignorant teenager he was in the past. After going through the baptism of time and experiencing all sorts of things, he had been honed to the point that he possessed a powerful will. He also had wise thoughts. With just some clues, he could deduce a lot of clues.
"It doesn't matter whether that's the case or not, I have to continue trying to open my eyes." Su Ming wanted to open his eyes, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not do it. He could not control his body, and that was why he could not open his eyes.
He continued trying, and time gradually passed. One month, two months … one year, two years …
Su Ming had already forgotten how much time had passed. Gradually, he had a feeling that he was not in the land of Immortals, as he had guessed previously.
Or else why had he not sensed a single absorption? In fact, he could vaguely feel that his body was moving … or more accurately speaking, he was floating.
"I don't remember this … I don't remember when I could not open my eyes and was floating like this. Just what is this moment in my memories?!" In silence, time passed once again. One day, he suddenly heard a violent bang.
Su Ming immediately noticed that he could hear something. This was the only sound he had heard over the years. There was a howl in the midst of that bang, and during that instant, a picture immediately formed in Su Ming's head.
There was a long arc slicing through the air in that picture, stirring up a howl as it crashed into the air, creating a loud bang.
That booming sound grew louder in Su Ming's ears and became boundless. When it was deafening, Su Ming's heart trembled, and he discovered that his thoughts were wrong. This was not a long arc, but … a gigantic ship!
'This sound means that the ship is traveling at an incredibly fast speed. This sort of speed … can't possibly be displayed on a cultivation planet. Could it be … that this is the galaxy?!'
Su Ming immediately wiped off the previous picture in his head and replaced it with a gigantic ship with a galaxy as its background.
It closed in with a sharp whistle, as if a sharp blade was slicing through space. This sound was familiar to Su Ming. He remembered hearing something similar somewhere before.
'A sword! This is the sound of a sword slicing through space. This is a sword, an ancient bronze sword. It's the sound of the gigantic ancient bronze sword from True Sacred Yin World charging through the galaxy! ' If Su Ming could breathe at that moment, he would definitely be panting. The picture in his head was complete, and a strong guess grew in his heart.
Somewhere in the starry sky of the Vast Expanse, an enormous ancient bronze sword whistled through the air. In front of the sword was a boundless starry sky filled with dust, within which floated a corpse.
"There's a corpse here. There's no mistaking it. It's this corpse that's spreading out such a powerful ripple of power. We're pretty lucky today, we actually found the corpse of a powerful warrior." An awe-inspiring voice reached Su Ming's ears. He was rather familiar with that voice, and he almost immediately remembered the owner of that voice. A bang instantly rang out in his heart.
'It's the voice of the Spirits of Nine Yin's Progenitor. It's his voice. The corpse, the ancient bronze sword … This is the baby we found in the galaxy when the Spirits of Nine Yin were ordered to search for the corpses of powerful warriors!
'That baby … is me!' The roars in Su Ming's heart were like an endless amount of thunder rumbling in his head. His heart trembled, but the next sentence that reached his ears made him feel as if he was about to break down.
'Hmm? It's not one corpse, but two! ' When the Spirits of Nine Yin's Progenitor spoke, several powerful divine senses immediately swept towards him and gathered on Su Ming's body.
'There's a baby in that corpse's arms … It's a pity that the baby is already dead. By the looks of it, it should have just been born not long ago.
'That woman should be the baby's mother.
'By the looks of it, this is an instinctive action of wanting to hug her child even before she died. She wanted to use her body to protect it so that the child would not be harmed.
'That woman must have been incredibly powerful in the past. Look, her tears have frozen on her face. In fact, when they fell on the baby's body, they froze as well. Only powerful existences can make their tears contain the power of Plane Kalpa, turning them into eternal teardrops. These teardrops are treasures, and the Enchanted Treasures created from them are incredibly powerful.
'Alright, separate these two corpses and store them away. Once we find a few more corpses, we can go home.'
A loud bang rang out in Su Ming's heart. This time, that bang could not be compared to the rumbling of thunder. This was the strongest voice Su Ming had ever heard in his life. It made him tremble, but it was not his heart that trembled, it was his body that trembled!
The feeling in his heart could not be described with words. His mind instantly turned blank, and only the voice of the Spirits of Nine Yin's Progenitor continued echoing in his mind. It grew stronger with each passing moment, causing Su Ming's trembling to turn into a madness that made him want to open his eyes.
He understood now why he felt warm. It was because he was in the woman's arms.
He also understood why he felt unfamiliar. It was because he had never seen this woman before. Never …
He also understood why he was sad. It was a sadness that came from his soul. It was because the woman's tears had frozen on his body.
'Mama …' Su Ming's heart felt as if it was being torn apart. Extreme pain traveled through his soul in the midst of endless grief. At that moment, if he still did not know who this woman was, then he would not be worthy of being called a son!
He wanted to open his eyes for no other reason than to see his mother, who had hugged his dead baby before she died and cried while protecting him during the final moments of her life.
He wanted to open his eyes and see her face. He wanted to use his entire life to remember his mother's face and use his life to protect it.
His body trembled, his heart roared, and his soul grieved. All of this gathered together to form a power that shook the sky and earth in an instant, causing Su Ming to gather enough strength to open his eyes as his body continued trembling. At that instant, he opened his eyes!
At the instant he did so, he saw the ancient bronze sword, the Progenitor of the Spirits of Nine Yin and the people behind him walking towards him, and he also saw … a pair of warm hands hugging him.
Su Ming turned his head around and finally saw a beautiful woman. She had her eyes closed, as if she was in deep sleep, but the reluctance to part and love on her face, along with the crystalline tears that had frozen on her face, became something that would remain in Su Ming's memories forever. His body trembled, and tears fell from his eyes.
Boom!
Everything before Su Ming's eyes disappeared. He lifted his hand, wanting to grab something, but all he could see was emptiness. There was an endless amount of stone monuments around him, and right before him was the stone monument that belonged to him. At that moment, booming sounds were coming out of it, and it grew from twenty thousand feet to one hundred thousand feet. (To be continued.
